Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life: How to Unlock Your Full Potential for Success and Achievement

POSITIVE VERSUS 
NEGATIVE THINKING
Both winners and losers examine how they performed after an im-
portant event. But underachievers almost invariably rehash the 
mis-
takes
they have made, the expenses they have incurred, and the
failures they have experienced. High achievers, in contrast, those
who think positively about themselves and their lives, are constantly
reviewing the 
best parts
of their performance and making plans to
repeat those actions the next time.
When you think about what you did right and what you could
do differently next time, your mind will be completely positive.Your
creativity will be stimulated. You will see all kinds of opportunities
and possibilities for improvement that you would have missed com-
pletely if you allowed yourself to feel sorry for yourself after an un-
successful event.
